Accidentally added a misspelled word to Microsoft dictionary on Word and PowerPoint. How can I remove it?

Question

I'm doing a project on the Constitution, so I've had to type "Constitution" a million times and I kept misspelling it as I was typing since I type so fast (I'd miss a T or an an I or something), so I decided to set the AutoCorrect option to automatically fix it to the right word regardless of how I spelled it so I wouldn't have to keep going back and fixing it.

But, I spelled it "Constiution" and as I went to click AutoCorrect, I accidentally hit "Add to Dictionary". So now it says it's spelled right when it's not.

Is there anyway to REMOVE the misspelled word from the dictionary?? Or do I have to always keep going back and checking to make sure it's right from now on?

I can't find the dictionary anywhere to try and remove it... Help!

Countessa, I tried what you said, but that's not quite the same thing. It's not in the replace area, it's in the dictionary itself. I didn't set it to be replaced by anything, it's added to the dictionary. So according to the program "Constiution" is a real word and doesn't need to be replaced. Know what I mean?

Sorry, I know this is kind of confusing, I'm having a hard time explaining what I mean.

Do a computer search for that word and you'll find the file with it. Once you find it delete it. If it happens in the future just hit undo.
